The most important thing to come from the debate

[jmowreader]

Mitt Romney has a hair trigger. And he is never wrong.

Forget binders. Forget Benghazi. The decisive moment for me was when Candy Crowley asked him, "if for some reason your numbers don't work..." and Mitt was all, "but the numbers DO work" and started going off on the travesty that someone might think Reaganomics 3 will be as big a disaster as 1 and 2.


Mitt's problem is you can jerk his chain real easy, and guys like the Iranian dictator and whoever the number two at Al Qaeda is this week are going to try it. He also has a Congress full of people who are not going back to their districts and telling their constituents the fallen bridge won't be replaced because Mitt needed his taxes cut.

1. He is the classic bully.

Pure and simple. A bully has to be confronted. There is no other way to handle it.

2. You nailed it. All you have to do is say one thing Romney doesn't like and he'll obsess over it unti

until he "proves you wrong", until he gets his way. And he won't stop, even if he's making an ass out of himself.

It's a HUGE weakness on his part, and it ought to be exploited at the last debate.

7. Flip-Flopper is a true loudmouth

Etch-A-Sketch always wanted the last word. He rode right over Crowley several times to do that.

That's what liars need for their lies to "stick".

3. Obama needs to do the same in the next debate and Romney will do the same

4. agreed. the look he gave obama calling him out, with a close up,

is a look we have all received from assholes who think they have a gotcha and are arrogant assholes you want to just smack. though, i am totally a pacifist and oppose all kind of physical confrontations.

5. He is another Wall Street

asshole who thinks he is superior to everyone else and can't handle people saying no to him.

6. Your observation is supported by the 3-4 time he got the last word in, when it wasn't his turn

because the answers were over and Crowley was moving on, Mitt quick like a weasel inserts something TTE, "That's absolutely wrong" or "The numbers do add up" right immediately after our President stopped speaking and before Crowley started to call the next town's person.

8. worse than McCain, who has an infamous temper.

Perfect for the Strict Father image the GOP tries to lay down (while secretly wearing magic ladies undergarments)
